High-efficiency, high-quality, and fast-acting granulated nitrogen and calcium mineral fertilizer. Specially formulated for intensive feeding of vegetables, fruit trees, berry bushes, and ornamental plants during their active growth, flowering, and fruit-setting stages. It provides plants with easily absorbable nitrogen and calcium, promoting strong shoot development, preventing fruit rot, and ensuring excellent quality and post-harvest shelf-life of the harvested crop.
🌱 Suitable for:
- For growing vegetables: excellent for fertilizing tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, cabbage, and lettuce, both in greenhouses and open fields.
- For fruit trees and berry bushes: excellent for regular supplementary fertilization of strawberries, raspberries, as well as apple, plum, and cherry trees throughout the season.
- For ornamental plants and flowers: ideally suited for strong development and lushness of rose bushes and other garden flowers.
- For spring and summer supplementary fertilization: best used as a top dressing during the most active growth and fruit ripening stages of plants.
✨ Key benefits:
- Protects against fruit rot and damage: High calcium content strengthens plant cell walls, effectively preventing blossom end rot in tomatoes and peppers, as well as bitter pit in apples.
- Rapid plant development in spring: Nitrate-form nitrogen is absorbed instantly, giving plants an immediate energy boost, stimulating shoot and green mass growth.
- Firm fruits and excellent product quality: Calcium ensures that berries and vegetables grow firm, do not crack, and are resistant to mechanical damage during transport.
- Extended crop storage: Vegetables and fruits fertilized with calcium nitrate remain fresh significantly longer after harvest and are much less susceptible to spoilage during storage.
- Improves soil structure and pH: Helps neutralize soil acidity around plant roots and improves the uptake of other important nutrients (potassium, magnesium).
- Convenient and even application: The high-quality granulated form allows for easy and even spreading of the fertilizer; the granules are dust-free and dissolve quickly when exposed to moisture.
🧪 Technical data and composition:
- Fertilizer type: Fast-acting granulated nitrogen and calcium mineral fertilizer (Calcium nitrate).
- Composition: Total nitrogen (N) – 15.5% (nitrate nitrogen – 14.4%, ammonium nitrogen – 1.1%), Calcium oxide (CaO) – 26.3% (water-soluble calcium).
- Form: Easily and evenly spreadable granules for garden top dressing.
- Weight (net): 4 kg.
⚙️ Instructions for use and dosages:
- Application in the garden and greenhouse: Spread the fertilizer evenly around the plants during the growing season (spring and first half of summer). After spreading, it is recommended to water the soil or apply the fertilizer just before rain, so that the granules dissolve better.
-
Average recommended dosages:
- For tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers: approximately 20–30 g / m² (repeat every 2 weeks during fruit ripening).
- For cabbage and root vegetables: approximately 30–40 g / m².
- For strawberries and berry bushes: approximately 25–35 g / m² (in early spring and after flowering).
- For fruit trees: approximately 40–50 g / m² scattered around the tree base.
📦 Storage:
Store in a dry, cool place, inaccessible to children, in the original tightly sealed packaging. The fertilizer is hygroscopic (attracts moisture), so it must be protected from direct moisture and air access to prevent the granules from clumping together.
